Does the following classified ad, appearing in a San Antonio newspaper, violate any
Canon of Ethics:

"IS IT WISE TO SETTLE? If sued - or have a claim A lawyer's advice is
helpful."

Opinion

The committee is of the opinion that this ad violates Canons 24, and 25, and
that the committee's Opinion No. 95 applies here. One
member who holds that it is a violation believes, however, that this same advice could be
given in an educational program of a bar association and, as such, not violate any rule of
ethics. (7-1)
